Jonathan Bender is a former NBA player turned serial entrepreneur, having founded The Jonathan Bender Foundation. He joins the podcast to tell us about his different businesses and their models.

Bender also explains what got him interested in making money on his own through hard work, which required a different skill-set from sports. He describes how athletics can translate to power in business and how ordinary people can launch second careers.

Bender is one of the rare social entrepreneurs who makes money and does good at the same time. He explains this new practice and how it’s a win-win situation for all.
